Germaphobe

A suddenly-normal person for whom the global Coronavirus scare feels like everyday life.
Observing the near-empty streets, theaters and gyms, seeing people all around him wearing masks, avoiding doorknobs, refusing to take the subway or eat in public, watching as nobody is shaking hands, the germaphobe felt that what he had known for years was finally sinking in.

staticursion

Going nowhere. Staying in place.

A variant on the words excursion, incursion, recursion, discursion.
Putting on neither coat, nor hat, nor boots, grabbing neither his car keys nor his bag, he prepared for another staticursion, staying where he was, where he had been, and where he would be for the foreseeable future - home.

cohobbitation

The day and night sharing of life during the pandemic, shut off from the known world, making home start to feel like Middle Earth.
Having been under one roof for months, losing track of the outside world, she gradually began to think of their relationship as cohobbitation, each of them now slightly different than normally human.

air travel

Once a futuristic fantasy, soon a fairy tale of the magical past.
"Once upon a time, in the olden days, people would get into a metal tube, which would rise up in the sky, and when they got out of it, a little while later, they were in a completely different part of the world."

Yes, sweetheart, it's really true. It was called "air travel". Now, as soon as Daddy closes your door, take off your mask, close your eyes, and have sweet dreams.

dead-eyed white men

They share a common feature, beyond their gender and ethnicity. Americans who commit almost all mass shootings and other crimes of hate have the same uninflected, flat stare, easily seen in hundreds of photographs.
From Atlanta to Gilroy, through Las Vegas to Rockford, Orlando, El Paso and Oklahoma City, the locations and victims too many to count, the mass killings in America were not carried out by any of the hotly-feared groups targeted by the Far Right and the NRA. Mug shots reveal that in almost every case, the perpetrators were dead-eyed white men.
